THE FRENCH SITUATION.

The situation in France is what may be
termed decidedly Frenchy. To the friends of
republican government it is very discourag-
ing. and full of possibilities of worse things
to come. The forced resignation of NJ. Grevy,
itself an arbitrary and unconstitutional pro-
ceeding, may prove to be the beginning of
the end. The government seems to be honey
combed with corruption and the political lead
ers devoid of patriotism. 1t must be very
bad state Of social and political morals that
would permit man to become Prime Minister
who had married his own mistress, woman
he had lived with several years before mar
riage, and whose career previous to that time
was one of open and shameless infamy. This
is the case of M. Rouvier, head of the late
Ministry. The career of Nine. Rouvier pre-
vious to her marriage with the ex-Premier
was succession of secret intrigues and open
scandals such is found only among the
worst class of female adventures. Nowhere
else but in France could public man have
married such a woman and continued to hold
any public Office or any share of public respect.
III. Rouvier. in spite of the scandalous alliance,
became Prime Minister of France, and his
wife, an unblushing representative of all that
is bad in modern French life, became one of
the leaders of Partisan society. The incident
shows very low state of social and political
morals. Quite in keeping were the disclosures
concerning the sale of decorations by Presi
dent CREWS son-in-law, in which men and
women seem to have Wed with each other in
a contest of corruption, betraying the most
sacred trusts and selling out the honor of the
government with as little compunction as
they did their own. Such things indicate a
rotten state of morals from which the worst
may be expected. To these signs of political
financial decay. From the position of one Of
the strongest governments in Europe, fnan-
cially France has sunk to one of exceptional
weakness. During the last ten years she has
been piling up debt at the rate of $12O, 900, 600
year, and this during a time of peace. The
revenues of the government have steadily
increased, but the expenses have vastly out
run them, and at present the government is
laundering in sea of financial embarrass-
ments. Thus, with corruption, extravaganza
and imbecility in public affairs, immortality
in private life, and seeming lack of patriot
ism or sense of public duty among her politi-
cal leaders, the condition of France is far
from hopeful.

A NATIONAL ISSUE.

In a great country like this, of vast and
varied interests, something is always demand
ing public attention and clamoring for settle
ment. Vital issues succeed each other so
fast that we seem to be in a state of chronic
crisis. At present it is Hines. Just as the
Gas Trust is fairly launched by passing safely
the first stage of endeavor, and everybody is
preparing to be thankful, Hines begins to
make trouble. Of course we refer to the
base ball player There is only one Hines.
He is the one referred to by Shakespeare when
he said some men are born great, some achieve
greatness. and some have greatness thrust
upon them. Hines appears to fill all three
requirements, though, perhaps, the bulk of
his greatness is thrust on him. This is not
Illness fault Rather, perhaps, it is his good
fortune. From the way circumstances are
accommodating around him, Hines would seem
to be creature of destiny, if not favorite
child of fortune Almost as many towns are
clamering for Hines as did claim the honor of
Homer's birthplace. Personally, Hines is
resident of Washington, but professionally he
is in the air. There is no telling where
Hines will land, or if he will ever land at all.
At present he is foater, and the great ques-
ton suddenly sprung the country is
whether he will ever come down, and, if so,
where. Four or five cities seven managers,
two ex- managers and an indefinite number of
club presidents are offering him inducements,
but Hines is non -committal tits this suspense
and uncertainty that makes the situation so
trying. Hines is center-felder. AS
understand the case the Indianapolis man

said he could not be hired to go to Indianap-

press Bostons offer. At this juncture the
Indianapolis manager concluded that the
Boston manager had no right to sign Hines

WASHINGTON specials with ''scare heads" in
esteemed Democratic exchanges contain the
startling intelligence that Mrs. Cleveland met
with accident on Monday. Hasty perusal
of the account by alarmed readers discloses the
fact that when taking her daily drive behind the
''seal browns" those celebrated but fat and
clumsy horses slipped on the icy pavement and
something dreadful might have happened had
the coachman not come heroically to the rescue
and by grasping the reins firmly lifted the
animals to their feet. 1t is gratifying to learn
that in this trying emergency Mrs Cleveland
though she turned trife pale. retained her
presence of mind and showed not the slightest
sign of fear. AS soon as the Democratic editors
recover from the shock of this occurrence
they will assure their readers that the incident
was portentous one, that Mrs. Cleveland was
preserved from calamity for the enjoyment of
further honors. and that the President will be
renominated next year.

THE comedy, or more properly, perhaps,
the tragedy, of divorce was never more strik-
ingly presented than in the Rawson case, at
Chicago. The third husband of woman
who is the mother of children by each of two
former husbands is shot down by one of those
children. The wife upholds the act of the
son because he did it in defense of her
''honor." Husband number two next appears
on the scene and vouches for his divorced
wife's innocence and purity, and incidentally
hints that it may be necessary to protect her
with his life. Chicago citizens who are fond
of excitement and the complications of divorce
now, it is to be supposed, anxiously
waiting for husband number one and his view
of the affair." In the meantime Rawson the
unfortunate number three, is lying on his
back with a bullet inside of him. and the
wife is posing as an injured innocent, and the
son is in Jail. 1t is situation which suits
Chicago, and dramatic conclusion is the
only one that will suit the public.

THE Chicago News, defending the admin
istration, says: 1.-THE political situation of
the country in all its parts and bearings is
the direct legacy of its predecessors. 1t is
actually compelled, to greater or less extent,
to run the government existing lines. I"
Quite true, and lucky it was and is for the
Democracy. When they went out of power
they did as malicious strikers sometimes do,
tried TO wreck the machine. They came
pretty near doing so, and that they did not
completely succeed was no fault of theirs.
The Republican party not only saved, but
restored, reformed and rebuilt the govern
ment. and when they retired they turned it
over in perfect working order to their sue
cessors. The Democracy have never orginat-
ed anything useful, and it is extremely
fortunate for the country that thus far they
have contented themselves with running
the government on existing lines"
